The First Site You Ever Made

[tommylogic]

This one's easy.. just like the title says; lets see the first site you ever made or published.

I will gladly be the first to start. I was chatting with a friend of mine on here and this topic came up.
So, I originally made this site in 1994. It was a family "blog" (before the advent of a blog.. way ahead of its times). The last time I updated, it was 2001. This is some of the most cutting edge technology for the times.

Features: You will need IE 5 or less to display this site and its proper use of visual mastery. (really, gotta be seen in IE only, current release if you must)

• you'll note the proper use of frames to properly display the leftside navigation
• Unique transition into the main page is "automatic" after the stunning splash screen intro
• All images are "right-click prohibited". You'll see your message if you tried to steal pics of my kids..
• On the photos page, the images open into their own window that will "self-close" on mouse out (pop windows annoyed me then too apparently).. this was tops trick technology. You couldn't bet this anywhere.
• A cutting edge calendar that you could post your important family events (such as the boy's first poop).
• The all important "About" page that explained to you why it took 4 minutes to load this site at your blazing internet speed of 14.4kbs... and why that number was a trick of your ISP to deceive you.
• The bar on the bottom of your browser displays a different message for every page. WAY SEO tops at its day
• WTF is Validation??!?!?!?

Introducing the top of the line... Cadillac Coupe DeVille... 1984!!!

Tommy, you know that this is a lot better than what some people are churning out in 2008! You know my views on the thing anyway - I'm assuming I'm the aforementioned 'friend' (yay!).

i was going to say the same thing as PR... this is sadly better than some sites people put up here to critique. :)

I made one back in 1999 when I was a sophomore in High school. It has marquees and rambow gradients and pictures of Final fantasy 7 all over it! it was the bomb digity. Wish I had a picture, geocities took it off 5 years ago.

Here's my first site. Not very old. It was my first project whilst learning about XHTML and CSS, So you find inconsistent code i guess, I think my current code is cleaner and commented better, although every time i read more of my latest book CSS Mastery i seem to find cleaner neater ways of doing the same things...

These are the oldest ones I could find. There were a few more before these but they generally never made it out of Photoshop.

I'm loving them.. its great to look back at some 1st generation works.

Arkady... I thought everyone would get a kick out of that. If you noticed my "Features", the last one was WTF is validation

and PR... yes!! that was you...

most of you guys' "first-ever" sites are better (aesthetically anyway) than 50% of sites today...
